When a person or person(s) feel as though, they can say or do anything to you without any repercussions. If there is any type of response to their actions, they claim to feel disrespected. Ghetto Authority is perpetrated by those who do not own or control anything, just their mouths and physical actions.

A example of a person with Ghetto Authority speaks using curse words and curses out others. But, when another person curses in front of them, they claim it to be disrespectful. Basically stating that the rule that they applied to you does not apply to themselves.
